Just a little update/Photo dump of what I've been doing the last few months. To be honest I've really only been chipping away at the do to list in my head and driving the car every Weekend. Doing meets, Spirited drives and looking after it. I fall more and more in love with every drive.

I've added a few things to my mod list like a Prototype GFB BOV and some other little things that I've taken pics of below. I'm sure there is other things but working 50+ hours a week sure does wipe the old brain of anything fun related.  :scratch_one-s_head: 

I was thinking about picking up a MY15 wrx to play with but that can wait for while...I have a feeling Subaru are going to release a rather updated FA powered STI in the next year or so and that will be a bit of me...maybe?
 

Here is the photo dump:
 

Wrapped the headers in Volcano wrap to keep temps down/increase spool. This has dropped oil and water temps up to 5c on average and has brought on boost a smidge earlier!

Replaced the worn out RS3's with some KU36's - Booked in with Road 2 Race on the 20/8/16 for a full alignment and setup of the car.

As is the car! Done plenty of paint rejuvenation lately...Also check out my blacked out headlights! Mean!

One last thing, The car came with a space saver that didn't clear brembos. I picked up a mint 17x8 SSR Type C to fit in the boot...It didn't fit with the factory boot floor. So we made a new floor!

Very happy with it! 

Like I said, The car is just about where I want it. It blows my mind every time I drive it. The power, handling and more importantly the feel is fantastic. Just like a go kart!...that's eaten it's weet bix. :)

Weird that the middle seat has such a large headrest. Not in your way?

I really only drive it once or twice a week. I guess it is annoying sometimes!
How exciting Rob! One week until I see him.
